    Once upon a time, there was a girl called Little Red Riding Hood. She loved to wear red dress, red hairbows and red shoes. One day her mother asked her to visit her Granny, who was sick. Little Red Riding Hood’s mother asked her to take a basket full of apples to her Granny. Little Red Riding Hood was walking through the forest, and she met a cunning wolf. The wolf asked the girl to know her plan and where she wants to go. The wolf came to know that Little Red Riding Hood is going to visit her Granny and the wolf ran to Granny’s house and locked Granny in the wardrobe. And the wolf pretended to be like Granny, and the wolf has covered himself under the blanket. Little Red Riding Hood thought Granny is very sick and she is sleeping in the bed. But as she came near the bed she noticed long ears, long sharp teeth. Little Red Riding Hood realized that it’s the same cunning wolf she had met in the forest. The little girl realized that the wolf is trying to trick her, and she screamed loudly for help! There was a woodcutter nearby and he heard the girl screaming. The woodcutter saw the wolf chasing the little girl and he hit wolf’s head with an axe. The wolf was scared, and he ran away from the house, and he never came back again. Moral of the story, Little Red Riding Hood now know the reason her mom had warned her not to talk to any strangers! The end.

    Gold:
    Once upon a time there was a little girl who lived in a village near the forest with her mother. She loved the colour red and she never went out without her red clock. Everyone in the villiage name her Red Riding Hood. One morning Little Red Riding Hood mother called her and told Little Red Riding Hood that granny is ill. Little Red Riding Hood mother prepared a basket with breakfast and told Little Red Riding to take it granny. She agreed because she is helpful and sweet child. She put on her red cloak and kissed her mother goodbye. “Remember, go straight to Grandma’s house,” her mother warned her. “Please do not talk to strangers! The woods are dangerous.” “Don’t worry, mommy,” said Little Red Riding Hood, “I’ll be careful.” She skipped through the wood with a sweet smile saying good morning to the animals. However, someone was peeking from behind the trees. It was a big hungry Wolf! Suddenly he came to her asked “What are you doing out here little girl. Did I mention that perhaps Little Red Riding Hood was a little foolish? As she did not think the Wolf is a dangerous. “I’m on my way to see my Grandma who lives through the forest” Little Red Riding Hood replied. The Wolf thought of a plan and told Little Red Riding Hood to pick flowers for her grandmother as Little Red Riding Hood was picking up flowers the Wolf rushed towards granny house. The wolf, a little out of breath from running, arrived at Grandma’s and knocked lightly at the door. “Oh thank goodness dear! Come in, come in! I was worried sick that something had happened to you in the forest,” said Grandma thinking that the knock was her granddaughter. But when she saw it was the Wolf she rushed from the back door into the forest to find help. He went through granny Wardrobe and picked out a nightgown and sleeping cap. A few minutes later, Red Riding Hood knocked on the door. The wolf jumped into bed and pulled the covers over his nose. “Who is it?” he called in a cackly voice. “It’s me, Little Red Riding Hood.” “Oh how lovely! Do come in, my dear,” croaked the wolf. When Little Red Riding Hood entered the little cottage, she could barely recognise her Grandmother. Grandmother! What big ears you have,” said Little Red Riding Hood as she edged closer to the bed. “The better to hear you with, my dear,” replied the wolf. “But Grandmother! What big eyes you have,” said Little Red Riding Hood. “The better to see you with, my dear,” replied the wolf. “But Grandmother! What big teeth you have,” said Little Red Riding Hood her voice quivering slightly. “The better to eat you with, my dear,” roared the wolf and he leapt out of the bed and began to chase the Little Red Riding Hood. Almost too late, Little Red Riding Hood realised that the person in the bed was not her Grandmother, but a hungry wolf. Just at ther right grandmother entered with the wood cutter. The wood cutter threatened the wolf. Seeing the hammer in the wood cutter hand scared the wolf and he ran out from the window. Little Red Riding Hood and her Grandmother had a nice breakfast and a long chat.

    Once upon a time, there was a little girl called Little Red Riding Hood. She loved to wear a bright red hood and was always skipping through the forest to visit her grandmother’s house. One day, her mother asked Little Red Riding Hood to take a basket of goodies to her sick grandma. The basket was filled with yummy treats like cookies, fruits, and cakes! As she was skipping along the forest, she met a sly and cunning wolf. The wolf asked where she was going and Little Red Riding Hood innocently told him she was on her way to her grandmother’s house. The wolf, being very clever, took a shortcut and arrived at grandma’s house before Little Red Riding Hood. The wolf tricked the old lady by dressing up as Little Red Riding Hood and pretended to be her! But the clever girl noticed something strange about her grandma’s appearance and asked a question, “Grandma, why do you have such big eyes?” The wolf, who had a plan, replied, “All the better to see you with, my dear!” Little Red Riding Hood was surprised and asked another question, “Grandma, why do you have such big ears?” The wolf replied again, “All the better to hear you with, my dear!” And finally, Little Red Riding Hood asked, “Grandma, why do you have such big teeth?” The wolf replied, “All the better to eat you with, my dear!” Suddenly, Little Red Riding Hood realised that it was the wolf, not her grandmother! She bravely ran away and screamed for help! Luckily, a hunter heard her screams and came to her rescue. In the end, the hunter saved the day, and Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother were safe and sound. From that day on, Little Red Riding Hood learned to be careful in the forest and not talk to strangers! The end
